You & I

I was eager today, to meet her, I just couldn't wait.

As girly as it sounds, I think I'm in love.

"Ashton, honey. You will get sick if you don't sleep. You need to sleep."

My mom didn't understand, it was important.

" Mom, I've tried sleeping. But I just can't. I like walking at night. It clears my mind"

My mom raises her brows

"So who is the girl?"

My eyes go wide when I hear what she said. But how?

" there's no girl, mom"

She smiled a bit

" Have fun"

Groaning, I walk out of the house. Great, she knows.

"Hey"

She smiles
"Hey"

I blurt out the first thing that came into my mind.

" why do you work here late night?"

She fiddles a bit

" My family owns this place. And I can't sleep so I work here."

Insomniac . Just like me

" me too, even I'm insomniac. But no one understands how serious it is."

She gazes at me like she couldn't believe.
" we are so alike, Ashton."

The way she says my name. I would love to hear it everyday.

She places her tiny hands on my shoulder to gain my attention.

" Ashton, would you like to try some of the cupcakes, I baked them."

And with that, we forgot all about the problems.
And looked ahead.
